Education and libraries have always been closely interconnected, despite all the changes that educational systems and libraries have undergone over the past centuries. In our times, the collaboration has become even more important and the new forms of education, together with the development of ICT tools used in education urges libraries to renew their services in a radical way. In order to meet the newly arising needs of educational institutions, libraries must undertake new tasks which have not been tested in library environment before. One of these tasks is the active support of e-learning management systems. There are many unclear issues concerning the role of libraries in e-learning. Intensive work is being done by experts of ICT and education worldwide in order to elaborate and fine-tune effective models. Hungary has also started to investigate the ways of setting up and operating a national digital collection of textbooks and learning resources. One of the ongoing projects carried out in the framework of the Hungarian Strategy for ICT in Education is called the e-Learning Library. The project aims to gradually replace print publishing of textbooks with digitally stored educational contents. Another aim is to set up digital resource centres which primarily serve customers, but also operate as centres of competence in educational innovation and methodology. The paper intends to give a definition of e-learning libraries and clarify their role in the educational system.

In early 2008, the Hungarian Ministry of Education and Culture published a call for proposals for the creation of a national digital library comprising already existing digital copies of picture collections, maps, photos, postcards, posters, engravings as well as scanned manuscripts. Funding was allocated for the conversion of the digital images, for providing metadata to the existing digital documents, and for ICT infrastructure necessary for the provision of quality services. 48 libraries received funding in the framework of the project. The setting up of the central database and service interface was taken up by the National Szechenyi Library. The partner libraries contributed high resolution copies of freely accessible digital images from their library collections to the central archive. Copies for service provision were made from the good quality archival copies. The Hungarian Digital Image Library (Magyar Digitalis Kepkonyvtar) offering multiple search possibilities can be found at www.kepkonyvtar.hu. Having performed a successful search, users of the digital library are offered various options. Selected pictures can be saved and printed, arranged into a slideshow or sent as a digital postcard. In order to facilitate the more detailed study of maps and engravings, a special magnifying tool, applying the Zoomify technology is available, The searching of the database is freely accessible to anyone, only a few services - e.g. the request for copies - require registration by e-mail address. The digital images can be used for private and educational purposes. For commercial use, a permission must be obtained from the rights holder libraries holding the original copy of the document. As of March 2009, the Hungarian Digital Image Library contains more than 10,000 records and in the few following months, this number is likely to be doubled. Although the project with special funding from the Ministry was accomplished, the collection of the digital library keeps expanding. Current partner libraries continue to contribute to the collection and other libraries intend to join. With its great number of well-known and less well-known images that can be freely accessed, the Hungarian Digital Image Library provides an outstanding source of materials for education and individual learning. The collection will be soon accessible in the framework of the Europeana project.

MTA SZTAKI and iKron Ltd. released a new integrated library management system called Hunteka in 2002. The development of the system is based on the authoress development plans and on the valuable feedback of Hunteka users. In this paper, a new Hunteka module is described, the e-Library, available as an independent software called JaDoX too, developed by iKron Ltd. This module helps and simplifies digitisation work from document processing through standardized storage to publishing on the Internet. JaDoX is a platform-independent document handling system based on open standards. JaDoX editor helps to transform unstructured text sources into TEI-based XML documents after recognition and proofing preparation. The results can be easily uploaded to the JaDoX server by one key press or mouse click. The JaDoX server stores the documents in relational database. It serves the documents for browsing, searching and publishing methods, which can be initiated on the web user interface.

The author is the owner of a private collection of more than 2,800 slide films. In this paper, he introduces readers to the history, types and viewing devices of filmstrips, long used for educational and cultural purposes in Hungary. More than 100 filmstrips of this collection are now available digitally as a result of various CD-ROM publications that are presented in detail in the article. The 'Filmstrip datastore' is an archive of filmstrips that were once used for the purpose of political agitation. Several CD-ROM products offer a collection of filmstrips based on classical tales. Since 2003, 150 filmstrips of Ferenc Biro's collection can be seen in the 'Virtual Museum on the History of Filmstrips', an online product of the Neumann Digital Library. This virtual library also presents other items of the private collection in connection with the history, promotion and technical tools of slideshows. Neumann Digital Library also publishes 'Pictures from the Hungarian Literary Heritage', a virtual collection of filmstrips once used as educational tools in classrooms. The article presents two other websites that offer digitised filmstrips of stories and tales for children.

The common framework for the digitization of and online access to European cultural heritage, as well as for the preservation of European cultural materials in digital form was set out by two important EU documents issued in 2006. These documents lay down the principles for the creation of the European Digital Library. Over the past two years, the prototype of the multilingual portal called Europeana was established. It is expected that by 2010, 6 million digital records will be available through Europeana. However, we are only halfway towards ensuring the effective operation of the European Digital Library. EDL can only reach its full potential if a sustainable business model is elaborated for its future development. This paper gives an overview of the achievements in the field of digitization of cultural materials in Hungary and on the European level.

The Hungarian Journal for Library and Information Science has several times touched upon the library-related aspects of the new copyright law. Articles published so far were written by legal experts. This time, readers are offered an explicit summary of essential copyright information for digitization activities by an author who is applying copyright rules in practice day by day. The importance of the topic is emphasised by the fact that at the end of 2003, new amendments have been made to the copyright law, which has an effect both on content provision via the Internet, and on the digitization work going on at libraries and museums.

In the rapidly developing world of online communications and digitisation, the portability of information and data is becoming more and more important. Users of various devices, such as personal computers, laptops, smartphones and PDAs running different operating systems and browsers are increasingly requesting the possibility of accessing digitised documents in diverse formats. However, finding a timely, efficient and long term solution to this demand is not a simple task. Many people who are enthusiastically involved in digitisation are not even familiar with the differences in data storage and display formats, consequently they are insisting on pdf or html to be used for archiving, despite that these formats were originally conceived for the displaying of data. What can be the universal 'wonderformat'? Although to-date, there is no global authoritative archiving standard in use, the SGML format as well as XML, a simple and flexible version of SGML, developed by the W3C, are proving to be the most efficient solutions from the point of view of data structuring. These standards, applied together with DTD, XML SCHEMA, XSL and CSS technologies make it possible to display data in various formats, bringing closer a diverse and harmonious digital world.

The preservation of digital cultural heritage is a task that every country needs to take charge of. Digitally born cultural objects that are exclusively published on the Internet merit special attention, as these documents are the most fragile. The extent, as well as the complex and changeable nature of the Internet and its most popular service, the World Wide Web represent an extraordinary challenge from archiving point of view. Carrying out the task - or at least parts of it - needs to be based on the long-term and continuous collaboration of various partner institutions: public collections, especially the national library, major Internet and content providers, IT developer institutes and companies, as well as the appropriate governmental bodies. This paper gives an overview of the international issues of Internet archiving and proposes the first steps towards the creation of a Hungarian Internet Archive.

New forms and ways of working under the influence of progressing digitization of work processes nowadays significantly “disrupt“ legal models of traditional labour law relations in which an employee is legally secured by an indefinite and full-time employment. Due to the digitization process, the number of indefinite-term and full-time employment contracts is decreasing from year to year throughout the European Union. The economy is based on digital platforms, which have the potential to continue to grow, especially in the area of services where an individual performs his/her work via the Internet. The platform economy creates new legal models that go beyond the traditional framework of bilateral employment relationships between the employee and the employer. There is a digital platform between the work supplier and the jobseeker which, in some cases, acts only as an intermediary between the work supplier and the jobseeker. In practice, however, are frequent also legal situations in which the digital platform occurs in the legal position of an employer. A typical form of a platform economy is crowdworking as a work assigned to an anonymous crowd. This means a term which, from the grammar and legal points of view, has its terminological equivalent neither in the Slovak language nor in the Slovak legal order. In her paper, the author analyses whether a work in the form of crowdworking can also be performed within an employment relationship and under what legal conditions. A digital platform, although being not in the position of an employer, as a work’s intermediary performs in the existing practice also activities that are traditionally attributable to the employer, especially in the pre-contractual relationships as well as in negotiating the rewards for the work done. If the digital platform only serves as an intermediary, then does not have the legal position of an employer in relation to the work performer, and the individual performing the work is not in the position of an employee. If, beyond the mediation, the relevant digital platform checks, for example, also the performance of the work of an individual, then it is in the legal position of an employer. In connection with the dynamic development of crowdworking as a typical form of platform economy, the existing application practice creates already not only new legal models of work but also new types of contracts which the current labour law legislation defined in the Labour Code does not recognize or does not allow. The conclusions of the analysis bring creative author’s suggestions on how to grasp legally the new forms of work carried out through digital platforms, the development of which has a significant advance in relation to the current labour law regulation.

POJEM ZAMESTNANEC V EURÓPSKEJ DIGITÁLNEJ PERSPEKTÍVE

The current economic development and the dynamically evolving digitization of production bring about new types and ways of performing work, which, according to the status de lege lata, do not correspond to the necessary legal characteristics of the wage labour. These new types of work are neither entrepreneurial nor the person performing them can be characterised as self-employed. Persons working in new work models do not yet have the necessary legal protection either as employees or as self-employed workers. The emergence of new working models under the influence of digitization challenge the labour law with essential issues, which also lead to a re-evaluation of the existing legal definition of the employee or the legal definition of wage labour. The need to re-evaluate the current concept of employee is also raised in the light of the most recent case-law of the Court of Justice, which defines the term worker in a much broader sense than it is defined by the Section 1 of the Slovak Labour Code. It follows from the analysis that, from the point of view of the considerations de lege ferenda, it would be necessary to extend the concept of employee as defined by the Slovak Labour Code as well as the concept of wage labour. The second alternative would be to define, in addition to the existing concepts of employee and wage labour under the Labour Code, the status of economically active employees, which would fall under the scope of the Labour Code, their relationship would be more flexible than the employment relationship and would be characterised by a lower level of protection compared to employees engaged in a typical employment.

Scientific libraries are culture centers connected with tradition and fulfilling very important task of preservation and popularization of cultural heritage. The fast development of civilization makes the present day scientific libraries employ the information and communication technologies, including digitization. This enables them to participate actively in the process of globalization and creation of the information society. The article presents the project 'Pomeranian calendars of XIX and the first half XX century from the collections of the Torun University Library – digitization and on-line access through Kujawsko-Pomorska Digital Library' that was started in 2008. Within the project were catalogued 16 titles of calendars (75 annuals) and made available on-line through Kujawsko-Pomorska Digital Library.

Bibliotherapy can be helpful in treating people with various disabilities, including the co-addicted. The article shows the bibliotherapist’s role in working with people who are co-addicted in the 'Bibliotherapist' journal in the period 1998–2008, using analysis of the content as a research method. The 'Bibliotherapist' is a periodical which, until 2010, was the only one to shape the contemporary Polish bibliotherapy and disseminate the idea of therapy through reading. In ten-year period 207 articles were published on the journal’s pages, among which only 8 (4% of all articles) dealt with the use of bibliotherapy in treatment of co-addicted people. These texts appeared in the years: 1998 – 1, 1999 – 1, 2000 – 4 and 2002 – 2. The largest number of articles on this topic is associated with the appearance of a series of articles by Bronislawa Wozniczka-Paruzel on the use of bibliotherapy in treating the co-addicted from Al-Anon family groups. The analysis shows that the topic of codependency in conjuction with bibliotherapy aroused weak interest of the journal editors in comparision to other articles.

The article presents the condition of library as an institution in the era of new media domination. On the basis of research at the Toronto School of Communication, we show the profound impact that writing and reading had on human thinking and social institutions. In particular, we focus on the ability to use abstract and universalistic categories and to be critical. These skills are a necessary base for the modern public sphere which is a sphere of freedom of opinion and a place where citizenship is being developed. According to numerous surveys the number of readers as well as the critical reading skills have been decreasing. Taking into account these trends and previous research we can assume that abilities required for full participation in the public sphere and modern society of knowledge will be weakened. There is a question of challenges that the contemporary library will have to deal with. According to a French historian of the book – Roger Chartier – the library can carry out its tasks in several areas such as: archiving all types of text carriers (even in case of complete digitalization of recourses), broadly comprehended social and educational functions which mean assisting in dealing with information overload, and active creation of cultural and community life.
